The variation of entropy of a substance is given by
\delta S =  \frac{\delta Q}{T} (1)
where
\delta Q is the heat exchanged in the process
T is the absolute temperature at which the transformation occurs.

The process in the problem is the solidification of the liquid Gallium, which releases an amount of heat equal to:
\delta Q = m L_f
where m is the mass of the substance and L_f = 80.1 J/g is the latent heat of fusion of Gallium. Using m=64.0 g, we find
\delta Q= m L_f = (64.0 g)(80.1 J/g)=-5126.4 J
where the negative sign means the Gallium is releasing heat to the environment.

Now we can use equation (1) to find the variation of entropy, but first we need to convert the temperature into Kelvin:
T=29.8^{\circ} + 273.15 = 302.95 K

And so the variation of entropy is 
\delta S =  \frac{\delta Q}{T}= \frac{-5126.4 J}{302.95 K}=-16.92 J
and the negative sign means the entropy in the process is decreasing.

2. This diagram represents a top-down view of an experiment on a table. The 250 g and 100 g masses are falling and are pulling t
Rasek [7]

Answer:

According to the data given in the question, experiment on table two pulling and falling masses are arranged in the fig. 250  g is pulling right side and   100 g pulling down. The gravitational force is common to both the masses, so we cannot say that the block moves towards heavier mass, also the block  does not move towards the lighter mass.

Obviously, the effect of heavier mass of 250 g is more on the block, so the block moves towards right bottom corner. i.e., diagonally between two masses
